Corey Maggette (5.3 points, 18 games): Maggette was removed from the rotation early in the season in favor of the younger players and never saw the floor again. He handled the situation professionally, although he deserved an explanation from Frank. Maggette, mentored Knight and Drummond, doesn't want to retire. Grade: Incomplete. Chances to return: 25% (Clarence Tabb Jr./Detroit News)

Jerebko didn’t get along with Frank, and poor player relations was a huge reason for Frank’s dismissal.Frank banished Jerebko to the bench from November to the middle of February, as their relationship deteriorated to the point where their disdain for one another was an open secret.“It was a tough year, looking back on it,” Jerebko said. “I’m excited for a fresh start and I know my teammates are too. Guys are ready to get going with a coach and fresh start.”

I will always appreciate Coach Frank. What he did for Piston Nation is incomparable: He made the city believe again. I hope to see the Coach return for alumni night and get the round of applause he deserves from the city that he resurrected.

I appreciate Coach Frank not being the Piston's coach anymore, is that how this thread works? Gawd, even my 7 year old son could see that Andre Drummond was starter material on that roster, it took Frank half a season to see that.

Frank probably thought hoped that he would be getting a shot at that HC job since they are struggling with Da Kidd, now he's been regulated to the doghouse locker room....he is probably is giving them their towels at halftime...
